Looks good 23pairer. I am thinking of a Videcki 3-hole trigger (I like the classic 3 round holes over the Ruger's more modern-looking trigger design).

I just haven't decided how much I will leave black, and how much will be switched over to stainless. I know I will get a stainless pin kit and leave the msh, grip safety, and hammer black....but Im on the fence on which way I want to go with the thumb safety, slide release, and mag release.

What is everyones' opinion of all stainless with only the msh, hammer, and grip safety black? I thought it might look nice with dark grips.

I put on the Hogue, one-piece, wrap-around, grips today and damn, that feels good! The only other mods I am considering right now are Trijicon night sights and MAYBE a tactical rail for a light.

Has anyone gotten the night sights that can advise on the part # for the SR1911.. will any 1911 fit or is it a specific size to fit the dovetails? Also, anyone put an aftermarket tactical rail on the lower? Any suggestions??

Not much in the way of customized mods, except for another set of Ruger grips in striated rosewood...good but pretty dark. I have, however, used three of the .22 lr conversion units on mine. Ciener, Marvel, and Advantage Arms all work well and would put bulk Remington .22's into a little less than 2" @ 25 yds; but I was unable to get the Colt (sliding chamber) unit to go on the lower rails. Here's a few pics. Rod

Still waiting for my SR1911 to arrive but I am collecting my parts.
CS warp speed trigger mod kit
Kensight adjustable target grips
Shok buffers
That should get me started. I will be using the gun for match shooting. It is sure a long wait but will be worth it.
